Thursdays - MTB Skills Course

Because on Thursdays we don't take you on a regular tour, but offer you a MOUNTAIN BIKE SKILLS COURSEfor beginners and intermediates.

This gives you the opportunity to learn thebasics and core skillsof mountain biking.

This skills course is ideal for everyone, wanting to get a taste of mountain biking and for everyone wanting to learn from scratch!

The course is perfect for the complete novice or those who wish to progress their riding.

In addition, a skills course is perfect for bikers, who have had some accidents and earned some "respect", they would like to get rid of.

However, it is also helpful forexperienced bikers, who have never really had the opportunity to take part in a SKILLS COURSE or a mountainbike instruction. We aim to enable the participant to ride more technically demanding terrain in a safer/more controlled manner.

In our training course you will learn:

Rider positioning on a mountain bike

Balance techniques and trackstand

Line choice for obstacles

Correct application of the brakes

Braking to a halt

Curving

Biking down steps

Handling steep, rocky terrain

Power assisted front wheel lifts

Rear wheel lift

Ascents in technical terrain

Technique in sharp turns and horeshoe bends

All course content is taught practically and imparted through exercises on your bikes. To apply what you learned, we will go on a small tour during and after the training, aimed to reinforce your new skills by biking more technical terrain than before.
